Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site can be developed independently of the wider allocated site NC5 having regard to development plan policies

What decided it

The development plan policies, particularly NC5 and the neighbourhood plan Policy 4, do not restrict the allocation from being developed in phases or smaller parcels, and the appeal site's layout would not prejudice adjacent development potential.
